Clock Ticks By

I can't seem to get it out 
While my mind yells 
"Give an answer before it's too late!" 
The clock tells 
Me it's getting to be a long day 
My conscience washed away 
I'm free, I don't believe it 
Even though they told me so 
Crystal clear--Nothing to fear 
I'm see through--see through me 
Little shreds of memory 
Scattered in the corners of my mind 
Tangled in rhythms 
So hard to find the 
One I'm looking for. 
Speaking to me with your eyes 
Telling stories of lives 
Or just one--but the clock ticks by 
One by one the minutes fly 
And then they stop-- 
I never cared to see 
Something so beautiful 
Because it was never really real 
To me, I'm trapped in wonder land 
Quicksand - makes it hard to stand 
I've got a rifle in my hand and 
I'm crying now 
I tried not to give in 
But the madness surrounded me 
In clouds 
And the memories changed again. 
Scattered memories 
Torn to shreds 
Nothing's real 
Reality is dead.
